Cardiovascular System: Blood Laszlo Vass‚ Ed.D. Version 42-0007-00-01 Purpose Explain why you did this lab and what if any safety precautions needed to be followed. For this lab I had to prick my finger‚ then with the bleach solution I had to dab it and then carefully drop the blood on the slide. Once I was finished I had to take the second slide and smear the blood. I had to let the slide dry. Then I had to prick my finger again and make 3 more slides. Then I had to mix the chemical

The Physiology of Fitness – Acute and long term effects on the body Musculoskeletal System Response to acute exercise Increased Blood Supply During exercise your blood supply increases to your muscles‚ the reason for this is to keep them working and making sure that they don’t get tired too easily. Increase in Muscle Pliability During exercise your muscles will also become more pliable because as the muscles contract quickly they will generate heat‚ this then makes the muscles more pliable

YAWNING Physiology‚ Theories and Contagiousness First‚ let’s look at what this bodily motion is: Yawning is an involuntary action that causes us to open our mouths wide and breathe in deeply. We know it’s involuntary because we do it even before we’re born: According to Robert Provine‚ a developmental neuroscientist at the University of Maryland‚ Baltimore County‚ research has shown that 11-week-old fetuses yawn. And while yawning is commonly associated with relaxation and drowsiness‚ your heart

Cardiovascular Disease Ashley Cookie Cardiac Arrest Mr. Stapleton November 20th‚ 2012 Would you like to feel or be close to death? How would you like to have your heart pump rapidly out of control? A cardiac Arrest is the absence of ventricular contraction that results in systemic circulatory failure. A Cardiac Arrest is something that can happen out of nowhere without you knowing. You can be cooking and you just collapse and go into Cardiac Arrest. It’s that easy!

What is exercise physiology? Exercise physiology is the science that describes‚ explains and uses the body’s response to exercise and adaption to exercise to maximise human physical potential. Exercise physiology is very important in touch because the amount of physical activity our body can tolerate‚ the better we will play for the longest amount of time. ATP/CP system is used by the body to produce ATP quickly in the absence of oxygen. High intensity activities lasting for less than 10 seconds

Chapter 1 - The Human Body Anatomy is the science relating to the structural organisation of living organisms. Physiology is the science relating to the operational functions of living organisms. The many parts and systems of the body are integrated and function co-operatively to provide a healthy living body via 6 hierarchy levels of structural organisation. The basic or first level is the Chemical Level‚ where atoms are combined to form molecules. The second level is the Cellular Level
